This show could not be more different from A LITTLE NIGHT MUSIC by the same composer/lyricist. Set in ancient Rome it feaures slaves, virgins, a buyer and seller of the flesh of beautiful women, elderly citizens with an eye for the ladies, and harridan wives - all played very seriously of course. This show played with such success with Frankie Howerd as the leading slave that the TV series UP POMPEII was a spin-off from it.Featuring possibly the best opening of any musical "Comedy Tonight", other great numbers are "Everybody ought to have a maid", "I'm lovely, absolutely lovely" and many more. A great end-of-season romp.
